Abstract

The performance of the French Dominican Louis Joseph Lebret in Brazil, and the Society for Graphical and Mecanográficas Analysis Applied to Socials Complexes - SAGMACS, created by him, here between 1947 and 1964 was the subject of our doctoral research. We tried to find out if the ideas of Lebret and the views and proposals developed by SAGMACS can be considered as part of the fields of urbanism and urban and regional planning. Thus, in this thesis, we investigate Lebret\'s ideas - concerning institutions founded by the religious - and the methodological procedures used by him in SAGMACS in order to understand what permeated within this ideology, understanding of the problems and the urban issue, in order to point out the ideas, studies, plans and contributions to the formation of urban planning framework and regional planning in Brazil, in that period.
